Rape of the Law?

Think about it…

When will a girl move out and wander fearlessly? Why does a worried mother calls up her daughter if she is out after 7 in the evening? What is she afraid of? There’s a voice in the mind that murmurs, God save her. The real fear in her mind is- Rape.

How can one forget, only a woman has the power to give birth to life.. to bring a life into existence.. we should salute this creation of the Lord. Since time immemorial a woman has been subject to sexual abuse i.e. in criminal law parlance, rape- a word which gives a woman goose bumps, like a night mare.

Aftermath of Rape

Rape is not only an offence, it’s a sin. It’s like giving so many wounds to a body, that it loses all its sensation. It’s a horrendous form of god’s beautiful creation of bringing a life into existence. This is another way of playing with nature. So brutal, that cannot let a victim face the world forever.

The plight of a woman after such a hurricane in her life is beyond words. It’s shattering. It’s next to challenging her utmost strength. It’s a mockery to nature’s beauty. She’s all broken, sad, depressed and her life comes to a halt. No sympathies work. It’s impossible to rejuvenate to her. In this drive, many of the rape victims commit suicide; some succumb to the wounds and die, while others wait for the death.

What can be done to help Rape victims?

It’s time to work beyond estimating statistics, because it has been immensely shooting up and I find it useless unless we are working for the root cause. People should be aware of the gravity of the offence. Instead of presenting repetitive sensational news broadcast of such cases, documentary movies on the condition of women post rape should be exhibited in doordarshan channels particularly, since it is the only mode of entertainment in the slums and villages. Such sessions should also be organized in schools, both in cities as well as villages. The youth should be taught about the psychological disorders of the culprits, so that they take the right path at the right time. The youth should also be promoted to work against this offence. This will help in building India of our dreams. Speedy disposal of cases should be done, so that the citizens don’t lose their faith in law. We cannot let go of the lust monsters. Every daughter is special.

70% of rape cases are false.

When affair of a girl is exposed,i.e., consent sex, then to hide the black face in the society she blame the boy and files false rape charge.

Some girls wear immodest clothes exposing her body and gives invitation to man to rape, and when they are raped then they shed crocodile tears and doesn’t want to take blame on herself.

Only 20% girls are real rape victim, and their rapist head should be chopped-off on the road.

Dear Rajeev,
I wud like to add in discussion that society is changing rapidly n so the new generation. On the pretext of socialisation new e-sites are comming up opening plethora of opportunity to interact n making so called friends. Without knowing a person making friendship may addto some problems n new generation is facing brunt of it where many cases remain untold.
However, it does not mean that male are given licence to do wht ever they like. Ethical values in the society need to be strengthen coupled with stringent action against the culprit using scientific tools of investigation like e-surveillance, DNA forensics etc so that wrong doers have deterrence of legal system’ Girls shd respect decency and exposing herself shd not be the symbol of modness.

Mr. Goswami,
Thanx a lot, u actually conveyed what I meant and replied on my behalf. I wud like like to add that the article conveys the plight of the actual rape victims.

dear people,
i would like to add that i do not agree with the point that is about the girls dressing….india is growing rapidly and so are the people….every girl should have have right to wear whatever they like whether other person consider it obsene or not….
if a girl wear something in descent or exposing its not the problem of that girl its the problem in the eyes of the beholder….inspite of changing girls clothes or commenting on it we should try to change the view of the people about girls….

Every 48 hours, a woman is raped in India
These are real statistics. It is UNSAFE for woman to go out on the roads in our country today.
A very recent example, a girl was shot in the head in front of hundred of people on a bridge. In broad day light, her killer ran away leaving her in cold blood. The point is, isolated cases can happen, but if a crime as brutal as rape is happening every 2 days, its time to reform our society and our mindset.
There are many cases, the ashiana rape case, and the recent one in Delhi. Am sure i do not need to mention them.
Its time we look reality in the face and do something to change it.

Respected Knowledgable Writers,

I would like to put my views as in somewhat in a way that balance is required by the fact of nature. Not to comment about the dressing in particular, but keeping in mind the culture of india, we surely need to modernise with the changing time. But the point is we have blindly followed westernisation, its like you install a software into a system which is not compatible with the hardware. India wearing a HAT of Diversity unlike other nations. Noting that Rape has broad definition and yes it is a brutual crime not to be compared with any other criminal act. The law is applicable to the society to function in a orderly manner and maintain the balance. The first point is about the teaching and parenting which is inculcated in the form of seeds to our brain, which helps us have control over our actions. Executive body is the one which deals with different cases under different circumstances. But looking at the facts published, the crime against women has done by their near and dear ones in majority of cases. And where the point of an drunk or a person not in senses comes, then no stringent law can prevent it.

Coming to the dressing sense – It’s just a preventing measure that we all take in all aspects of our life. Things which are confined to the bedroom are done under the blue sky and rock gardens. And executive faces many challenges as they are not the God to predict the relationship of two gender going together. “Prevention is better than cure”. We eat junk food, but not daily only to suit the occasion. Film industry has played a greater role in society fashion trend which is not the part of the real life but should be kept only to the sets of reel life. I, you or anyone is not to dictate what to wear and how to wear. Its about you to carry yourself. There is lot more to say, but i can put across my point of view.
